DESCRIPTION

23       SAGA GIS (System for Automated Geoscientific Analysis) is a free and
24       open source geographic information system used for editing and
25       analysing spatial data. It includes a large number of modules for the
26       analysis of vector, table, grid and image data.
27
28       The SAGA command line interpreter is particularly useful for the
29       processing of complex work flows by defining a series of subsequent
30       tool calls in a script file. Calling saga_cmd with the option '-b' or
31       '--batch' will create an example of a DOS batch script file, which
32       might be a good starting point for the implementation of your own
33       specific work flows.
34
35       When run without arguments, the module libraries in the current module
36       library are listed. By default this is the directory which was set at
37       installtion (/usr/lib/saga). This can be overwritten by setting the
38       environment variable SAGA_MLB.
39

OPTIONS

41       [SAGA_MLB=dirname]
42               Module libraries are expected to be located in the directory
43               that is specified by the environment variable 'SAGA_MLB'. If
44               this is not found the module installation directory
45               (/usr/lib/saga) will be searched for instead.
46
47       LIBRARY [MODULE] [MODULE OPTIONS]
48               Specify the library (ie ta_morphometry) and the module (number
49               or name). If no module is specified the different modules of a
50               library are listed.
51
52       -h, --help
53               Display help and exit
54
55       -d, --docs
56               Create tool documentation in the current working directory
57
58       -b, --batch
59               Create batch file examples in the current working directory
60
61       -c, --cores
62               Number of physical processors to use for computation
63
64       -f, --flags
65               Various flags for general usage [qrsilpxo]
66
67               q No progress report
68               r No messages report
69               s Silent mode (no progress and no messages report)
70               i Allow user interaction
71               l Load translation dictionary
72               p Load projections dictionary
73               x Use XML markups for synopses and messages
74               o Load old style naming
75

EXAMPLE

77       export SAGA_MLB=/usr/lib/saga
78
79       saga_cmd ta_morphometry "Local Morphometry" -ELEVATION dem.sgrd -SLOPE
80       slope.sgrd -ASPECT aspect.sgrd -METHOD 1
81
82       Multiple input files can be specified by separating them by a semicolon
83       (;).
84
85       saga_cmd libgrid_tools Merging -GRIDS test1.sgrd\;test2.sgrd
86       -GRID_TARGET merged.sgrd
